• Check whether all the cable entries and stopping plugs have been tightened firmly.
• Check if all conductors have been clamped firmly.
• Check if the line voltage and the rated operational voltage are consistent.
• Check if the permissible conductor diameter for the corresponding cable entries have
been used.
• Check if the device is closed according to regulations.
WARNING
Danger of electric shock due to energised parts!
Non-compliance can result in severe or fatal injuries.
• All connections and wiring must be disconnected from the power supply.
• Secure the connections against unauthorized switching.
Two conductors can be installed under one connection terminal.
Material and cross-section of both conductors must be identical.

the device must be taken out of operation.
if corrosion on the flameproof Ex-joint
is present
Apply acid-free grease, which is
compatible with aluminium,
to the flameproof Ex-joint.
if the safety screw M4 has been
tightened firmly
Tighten the safety screw to a torque of
1.3 Nm.
if the external equipotential bonding
conductor (as required) is still connected
Reconnect the external equipotential
bonding conductor.
if the mounting screws have been
tightened firmly
Firmly tighten the mounting screws.
